Growing up I always heard that you should never believe what a recruiter tells you. They can promise you that they'll train you on some high tech cool stuff that translates to a good job in the private sector, but then once you sign up they just have you scrub toilets for 4 years.
But now my son is almost grown and he's considering the air Force. I've heard that the recruiters can't lie as much now because they have service contracts that basically guarantee that if you're promised certain training, they will put you in that training, and as long as you don't flunk out then you have a good chance of that being your job.
Do any of you guys have experience with this? Is it true that they actually keep their word now because of the contract?
